I may be wrong, but there is one piece of advice I feel compelled to share with my own people.
Gold and silver have become expensive—and they have stayed that way for a while. When prices were rising quietly, it felt natural to simply watch and feel reassured. But now the narrative has changed. Ideas are coming from all directions that these precious metals still have “a lot of room to grow.”
I cannot say whether they will or they won’t. Markets have a way of humbling certainties.
What I can say, from experience, is this: there is wisdom in partial profit-taking. Selling a portion of one’s personal holdings at elevated prices is not a lack of faith in gold or silver—it is an act of discipline. It converts paper gains into real gains and restores balance to the portfolio.
Precious metals are meant to preserve wealth, not test patience or invite greed. When everyone around you sounds confident, it is often a good time to quietly reduce exposure—not exit entirely, but rebalance.
Sometimes, the smartest move is not predicting the next rise, but respecting how far the asset has already come.
